Grafted Vegetable Plants

Our tomatoes, aubergines, peppers, cucumbers, melons and squashes are supplied as grafted vegetable plants. Widely used by commercial growers, this technique of grafting a top-quality vegetable variety onto a more vigorous rootstock has revolutionised growing for the home gardener. Benefits include bigger yield from more vigorous plants, little need for heating or the greenhouse, earlier and longer cropping, excellent resistance to soil-borne pest and diseases, greater tolerance to nutritional disorders.
